Alex Edelman: What are You Going to Do? At Steppenwolf August 12-16 - Interview By: Paul Lisnek

Alex Edelman’s What Are You Going To Dois a sharp, hour‑long, narrative stand‑up show in which Alex looks at his own life—family, faith, and politics—for fast jokes and uneasy questions about responsibility and identity. Drawing on stories from a Jerusalem amputee hospital, his Jewish upbringing, seashell obsessions, and trips to places like Graceland, Edelman uses his signature storytelling style to ask whether he should be doing something more meaningful with his time, and what it actually means to be a decent person in a world filled with chaos.
